modify stage warning

Post by pavan_test »

When I convert from double to decimal (decimal_from_dfloat) i get this warning message.

Modify_1: When checking operator: When binding output schema variable "outRec": When binding output interface field "XXX" to field "XXX": Conversion from source type "dfloat" to result type "decimal[11,0]": Possible range limitation.

can someone please explain me what this warning mean and how do I get rid of this message.

Thanks
Mark

"Possible range limitation" simply means that your source data may not fit in the target field. Specifically in your case the double into the decimal. If you have no concerns that will ever been an issue, I could see someone demoting this to informational.
